The bay window and verandah were designed by Edward Simpkin in 1899. These seven properties form an integral part of the only remaining concentration of early twentieth century Edwardian beach houses in South Africa. At one stage it belonged to the Chief of the SA Defence Force, Admiral Hugo Biermann.
